Throwback to the time that the Liberals won every seat in the New Brunswick legislature so the Premier had to appoint members of his own party to the opposition.

This is fucking abhorrent. Mum had brain and bowel cancer. I genuinely have no idea how we lived for those three (ish) years before she died, but I know that she wouldn't have been able to work for 10 hours a week. Any respect I had for Luxon is gone. Utter cunt.
Here's Luxon saying he believes that someone on the JobSeeker benefit, who has cancer, should still be looking to work 10 hours a week:

The idea of a MÄori Parliament sitting alongside the existing Parliament isnāt so far fetched, and exists overseas. Norway, Sweden and Finland have the SĆ”mi Parliaments for the indigenous SĆ”mi people of Scandinavia. Thereās also an Assembly for Swedish speakers in Finland.

I was in a head on crash in December ā we were doing about 60 and they were doing about 80. If we had both been doing 100, Iād probably be severely injured, or dead. Lower speed limits save lives. This is a wreckless move that will lead to a higher road toll.

ā¦all three pandoro cafes are in places that have not had cycleways or bus lanes installed. .
Wellington's Pandoro cafes are closing down today, the latest in a string of hospitality and retail closures in the capital. Owner Tony Beazley told @NewstalkZB he blames the struggling local economy and the council removing car parking by building bus and cycle lanes.
